Hey I couldn't find anything about whether this is intended to work on devices in S mode. (My device is in S mode and crashes when I try to open it.) I will submit a bug report with Feedback Hub diagnostics if it's supposed to.

It’s not supposed to, sorry. CMD and PowerShell are restricted on S mode devices by policy, and we can’t countermand that policy.

@svgPhoenix Will do - thanks for the suggestion.

Also, when you say "it crashes when I try to open it", I assume you mean Terminal? If so, could you share what errors etc. you see here too? Sorry to bifurcate you across two feedback mechanisms, but it might shorten the path to a root cause by doing so in this case.

@bitcrazed Yeah, I meant Terminal Preview crashes - not windows itself lol. Here's the link to my diagnostic data on Feedback Hub. Terminal doesn't give any errors or anything, just closes as soon as the frame renders.
